3. Installation
3.1 Unpacking Inspection
• Open the UPS package and inspect the contents upon receipt. The accessories attached to the UPS contain
a power cord, a user manual, communication cable, CD-ROM. The long backup model also includes the
cable for connection to battery bank.
• Check if the unit is damaged during transport. Do not power on and notify the carrier and dealer if find
damaged or parts missing.
• Verify this unit is the model you want to buy. Check the model name showed both on the front panel and
rear panel.

Note:
Keep the packaging box and packaging materials for future transport use.
The equipment is heavy. Always handle it with care.

3.2 Installation Information


• The UPS installation environment must be in good ventilation, away from water, flammable gases and
corrosive entities.
• Do not lie down the UPS against the wall so that front and side panel air intake hole, rear panel air outtake
hole will be unobstructed.
• The ambient temperature around the UPS should be within 0 ~ 40°C (non-condensing).
• If dismantling the machine at low temperatures, there may be condensation droplets, users can not install
or operate it before UPS completely got dry both inside and outside, otherwise there will be danger of
electric shocks.
• Place the UPS near the mains source so that can cut off utility power without any delay in case of
emergency.
• Make sure the load connected to the UPS is off when users connect it to UPS, and then turn on the load one
by one later.
• Connect the UPS with the power outlet which is over-current protected. Do not connect the UPS with
power outlets whose rated current is less than the maximum input current of this UPS.
• All power outlets should be configured with earthing device for safety.
• UPS could be electrified or powered no matter the input power cord is tied or not, even when the UPS is off.
The only way to cut off the output is switching off the UPS and disconnecting the mains power supply.
• For all standard model UPS, it is advised to charge the batteries over 8 hours before using. Once the AC
mains power energizes the UPS, it will automatically charge the batteries. Without prior charging, UPS
output remains as usual but with shorter back-up time than normal.
• When connected to motor, display equipment, laser printer etc, UPS power selection should be based on
the startup power of the load which is usually twice as rated power.
• Wiring by a qualified electrician is required. Ensure input cables and output cables are connected correctly
and firmly.
• If install a leakage current protective switch, please install it on output cable.
• For 1-3K series long backup model units, you may need to prepare wires for terminals based on the
following table.

3.3 Installation and Output Connection


Normally, output connection of 1~3KVA series is configured with power outlets or terminal blocks, users can
plug the load cable into the UPS power outlets to energize the load. Make sure the mains cable and breakers
in the building are enough for the rated capacity of UPS to avoid the hazards of electric shock or fire.

3.4 External Batteries Connection (Long backup model)


• For different UPS model, users are instructed to configure different battery voltage as below table. More
or less units are forbidden, or else something abnormal or faulty will appear.

Model Battery Quantity (unit) Battery Voltage (volt)


1KVAH-RT 3 36
2KVAH-RT 6 72
3KVAH-RT 8 96

• One end of battery cable is for UPS terminals while the other end with triple cables is for battery terminals.
Correct installation procedure is highly vital or else probable electric shock will arise. Users are strictly
required to follow the below procedure.
• Connect batteries correctly and make sure the total battery voltage is available for UPS.
• Correctly connect the long battery cable to battery terminals first, red wire is to positive plate while black
is to negative. If users connect the UPS first, electric shock or other danger may not be avoided.
• Before connecting loads, users should supply mains power and energize the UPS.
• Connect long battery cable to UPS terminals with correct poles link (red is for ‘+’, black is for ‘-‘), UPS will
start charging automatically.
• Connect the battery pack to the battery connector.

off the output of UPS immediately by operating EPO
port in case of emergency. 1 2

Normally, pin1 and pin2 are connected so that the


machine can be working normally. When some
emergencies happen, and when users have to cut off
the output, just need to disconnect the connection
between pin1 and pin2, or just pulling it out.

5.3 UPS On/Off Operation

Operation Description
Icon Display

> Turn on the UPS with mains power


• With mains power connected, UPS works in bypass mode, its output is
same as the input voltage within the input range. If there is no need of
output voltage when mains power connected, you can set up bPS to
‘OFF’.Default bPS is ON, it means there is bypass output when power
on.
• Press the ON key for more than half a second to start the UPS, then it
will start the inverter.
Turn On the UPS
• Once started, the UPS will perform a self-test function. When the
self-test finishes, it will turn to online mode.

> Turn on the UPS by battery without mains power


• When main power is disconnected, press the ON key for more than
half a second to start UPS.
• The operation of UPS startup process is almost same as above
process with mains power. After the self-test finishes, UPS will work
in battery mode.

> Turn off the UPS in Line mode


• Press the OFF key for more than half a second to turn off the UPS.
• After UPS shutdown, there is no output. If output is needed, you can
set BPS ‘ON’ on LCD setting menu.
Turn Off the UPS
> Turn off the UPS in battery mode without mains power
• Press the OFF key for more than half a second to turn off the UPS.
When UPS shut down, it will do self-test first, until there is no display
on the panel.

• When UPS is in LINE Mode, press the self-test/mute key for more than
UPS 1 second. UPS gets to self-test mode and tests its status. It will exit
Self-Test/Mute Test automatically after finishing test.
Operation • When UPS is in BAT Mode, press the self-test/mute key for more than
1 second, the buzzer stops beeping. If you press the self-test/mute
key for one more second, it will restart to beep again.

Turn to bypass mode under the following three


conditions:
• Connect mains power and the bypass setup is ON.
Bypass Mode • Turn off the UPS in line mode and the bypass setup is ON.
• Overload in line mode.
Note: When UPS is working in bypass mode, it has no back up
function.

Being in line mode are as following: When input mains


Line Mode corresponding to the working conditions, UPS will work

but still can charge batteries.

Being in battery mode are as following: the buzzer


beeps once every 4 seconds.
Battery Mode
When the mains power is low or unstable, UPS will turn
to battery mode at once, and LCD displays ‘batt’.

Being in ECO mode are as following: When the input


mains meet the input range of the ECO mode and the
ECO function is on, the UPS works in ECO mode. If
Ecco Mode input mains exceed the range of ECO several times
within one minute but stays in inverter input range,
UPS will work in inverting mode automatically. LCD
displays ‘ECO’ .

Operation Mode and LCD Display Description


Frequency conversion mode is mainly to provide a
stable voltage and frequency (mainly in terms of
frequency). After starting this mode, its output will not
be affected by utility to meet input needs of some
precision equipment and make users’ load more stable
and secure. After opening CUCF mode setup, LCD
displays ‘CUCF’. Under the CUCF mode, when the
CUCF Mode
output frequency is set to 50HZ, the load capacity
decreased to 80% of the original volume; when the
output frequency is set to 60HZ, the load capacity
decreased to 70% of the original capacity. The output
frequency is fixed with the setting values, it doesn’t
vary with utility change. And the UPS can not be set to
going bypass under this mode.

When UPS has a failure, the buzzer beeps and the


UPS turns to fault mode. UPS cuts off the output and
LCD displays fault codes. At the moment, users can
Fault Mode press the mute key to make the buzzer stop beeping
temporarily to wait for maintenance. Users can also
press the OFF key to shut down the UPS when confirm
that there is no serious fault.
